“What does CHES mean to me? Well, one of the major things is education days. They are a chance to connect with peers from both the hospital and the long term care side, seeing also what vendors have offered at the trade shows. Build relationship with those vendors and the rest of the individuals that attend this trade show. There are a wide variety of jobs specific seminars that offer a great deal of information for us that we my or may not have access to otherwise. The national website or national organization also gives us access to relevant webinars from other areas of the country than we are in now. Also very important to us is access to the CSA standards.” click here

I have also had the opportunity to expand my knowledge and engage in membership courses that are offered during conferences and webinars. During the beginning of COVID I have reached out to contacts that I developed through chess to discuss ideas and ways to create a safer environment in our hospitals” click here
